“My daughter has been with Kowkabany's for 3 years and we have seen her thrive not only at the school but as a person. Her journey with taekwondo has taught her valuable lessons in hard work, discipline and the pride of goal achievement. Chief David and Chief Laura truly care about helping their students develop their taekwondo skills as well as important life skills that can be carried with them throughout their lives. Highly recommend!“

“Our son, Sean, has been attending classes at New Tampa Karate, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. Sensei Eddie is an outstanding instructor who is patient, encouraging, and truly cares about helping each student grow—not only in karate but also in confidence, respect, and discipline.

The dojo has a welcoming, positive atmosphere where students are challenged while feeling supported.

We highly recommend New Tampa Karate and Sensei Eddie to any family looking for a quality martial arts program. Thank you for making such a positive impact on Sean!“

“Mr Petrov has a true calling as a coach, especially when it comes to “herding cats” - aka managing a class full of young energetic kids. He somehow manages to keep everyone engaged and motivated. He’s incredibly patient, kind and supportive. His assistant coach is also great.
My child loves taekwondo classes and always looks forward to coming back. This place is truly one of a kind“

My son has been going through some rough times and since he’s been going here, I’ve seen a huge improvement. Thank you to the amazing instructors and wonderful people that go here. I definitely recommend this place! :)“
